This type of name calling is completely uncalled for. Although many equipment manufactures, including cable makers, appear to be sponsors of this site, I do not believe that Ken or anyone else associated with this site is trying to sell "snake oil". He happens to be wrong on this one point (at least when it comes to digital cables). Whenever stating an opinion, I for one, try to explain my reasons, and whenever possible, provide links to sources and additional information that I think other forum member may find informative or interesting WITHOUT QUESTIONING THE INTEGRITY OF ANY WHO MAY NOT AGREE.

There was no name calling, just asking a valid question.
